What I liked and Didn't like about this movie
22 August 2007
All during this movie,I was awaiting the special effects,that were not there.I love Arabian night tales,especially Sindbad,but where was the genie in the lamp,the flying carpet,the magical villain.The Thief of Bagdad[1940) is my all time favorites,as it incorporated all of the magic.I did like Walter Slezak in this movie,his tone of speaking is similar to peter Lorre.I did think about this movie long after it was over,so I liked it enough to give it a seven.I loved Maureen O'Hara's makeup and beautiful clothes.Also 40's color has a beauty all of its own.I thought Douglas Fairbanks was weak in this movie,physically speaking,as I envisioned a dark haired more muscular Sindbad.Costumes were outstanding.
